Stormtrooper, 1918

[JGREEN]

Hi guys,

Here's some pics of my latest, a 54mm piece from Andrea. There's a humanity to this sculpt that I really admire. It's not the ideal, romanticized vision of a soldier often conveyed in figures. This guy just looks, to me anyway, like a very young man, thin, maybe even a little frail, tired, haunted, etc., etc. I bought the trench section groundwork, which is absolutely fantastic, a while back and I don't quite remember the brand. I think it was Tommy's War, or possibly Model Cellar. The barbed wire is Hudson and Allen. All painted with acrylics. Thanks for looking!

You have captured the mood of the piece as well as once again painted up a great figure. Your colors and technique match the nature of this forlorn yet resolute figure very nicely.

Best,
Kevin

Superb work, all round. I like this figure, too. You've made a good job of him. To be honest it's passed me by, but now I've seen your version, I fancy it. The best compliment I can pay.
